Bad pain in vaginal area

Trying to decide what I should do and looking for any suggestions:

Lately my vaginal area has been really really irritated. I know I do not have any STD's (DH and I were tested before we got married and have had no other partners) anyway so what lead me to getting on here and asking is because it isn't like any pain I have had before. It is similar to a UTI where I want to just keep going pee because it hurts so bad and burns similar to what it would feel like if you had scratched a bad sun burn. It is a little red but no discharge. I have no pain anywhere else and there is no foul smell to the urine. Could it still be a yeast infection or UTI or does it sound like something else? The pain comes and goes too, it isn't constant. I was fine all day yesterday until bed time. I went to the bathroom and about cried, didn't even wanna roll over to snuggle with DH before we fell asleep. I don't want to have sex because the area hurts so bad. I don't think it is sex related because we haven't had sex in about a week and there hasn't been any correlation between condom use or anything... Please help

Make sure you're not using irritable soaps, or washing your hair while in the tub. Also use Summer's Eve feminine wash because its hypoallergenic. I was experiencing pain before too, and my doctor told me to stop using soaps and body washes because they will irritate you. I don't think its nothing serious.
